When most people think of bodybuilding foods in order to build fast muscle, Soups are the last on anybodies list. Lacking protein and quality carbohydrates in equal measures.
Well, that’s all about to change, as in this article I am bringing you the ultimate Bodybuilding Super Soups that will transform your opinion of the humble soup into a protein packed bodybuilding ‘Super Food!’
If Your Not Getting Big Here’s Why
We all know guys that train harder down the gym than anyone but still fail to put on any quality muscle gains. So often I hear people complaining about their ‘poor genetics,’ ‘fast metabolisms’ and countless other self-defeating excuses of why they fail to pack on size and ‘build fast muscle.’
The truth is, ANYONE is capable of gaining size and muscle mass, irrelevant of genetics and other contributing factors.
Ok, only the blessed few of us has the genetic potential to be an IFBB pro but every body can make tremendous gains and is capable to build fast muscle in very short periods with the correct training regime, rest and nutrition.
The problem most people have is not inside of the gym. In fact, it’s relatively easy to train hard and to train heavy. The main reason people fail to pack on the beef is primarily down to failing to recognize the biggest truism in bodybuilding.
‘The Growth Begins When You LEAVE The Gym’
Simply meaning, it is the rest time and the food that you consume between workouts that will enable your muscles to gain the fuel that they need and to grow.
Most people underestimate the amount of good quality nutrition that they actually need to be able to keep the body in an anabolic (growth) state.
